[Official] Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2


Recommended Posts

It's not that big of an advantage really, yes it gets the glitcher some kills but 5/10 he dies before he gets close to anyone and I'm playing Hardcore, so they usually take out a teammate as well, annoying them in the process. It was definitely much worse when I was forced to play in regular ( below Rank 19 ).

I messaged one of the glitchers, just said "glitchfag" and he replied to me 10 minutes later "ur 21 get a life" ... The hell does my age has to do with him glitching :laugh: ?

Am starting to enjoy the game, finally - Home on the cheat-free console and past the regular-tard modes, back in Hardcore where I belong :cool: Having a blast. I also just had a hilarious game, before the game started I just blurted out "You puff!" a few guys laughed and for 4 S&D rounds, everyone constantly used it with some variation "Ohhh you ****ing puff", "I got puffed", "OH MY PUFF", "You puff" when someone got shot, died, planted, disarmed etc.

Akimbo options shouldnt be allowed in this game at all

Might as well get teletubbies for characters and friggin lasers for weapons since we're moving towards this unrealistic environment :s

But obviously IW made it an option for pretty much everything to lure in the tacticool kids - they succeeded

Don't be silly. The game isn't supposed to be realistic. Anyway akimbo isn't that great with most guns. I rarely see anyone using it. Though the duel shotguns can be pretty cheap...

Generally Akimbo isn't very practical in the game.

I agree the akimbo shotguns are stupid. They're so damn overpowered it's ridiculous. I shouldn't be able to die from a shotgun blast when I'm like 30ft away from the guy/girl using it.

I knew it wasnt realistic when you have to unlock the red dot and eotech for every gun despite it having a 1" standard milspec mount which should fit on most guns in the game, got bored of having to unlock everything for each gun.

What do people recommend for weapons? I've heard, and never use, sub-machine guns. It's usually an assault rifle on multiplayer play.

The knife.

Just run around the map knifing people. It gets a one shot kill and other players hate it.

lol just tried the launcher and semtex glitch, have to say highly amusing to run upto sum1 and explode when they kill you, though its seems many know the trick as run upto a few ppl and they try and run away, dont even try and shoot or knife you. I can see it becoming very annoying and i will probs be fixed fairly soon, but could be quite a good defence against the ppl who run around knifing everyone (like i do on certain maps)

Yep SMG's have been nerfed on basically all but one map (Skidrow). Because of the larger maps that IW made, SMG's are just not conducive to the game play anymore. I find it highly disappointing because I quite liked the smaller maps with more frenetic action.

For my knifing class i have the Vector due to it accuracy and the M9 with tactical knife so stab quicker, thus good chance in winning a knife stand off.

Wonder if they'll do anything about the map glitches, i myself have just found out how to get on top of one of the office buildings in highrise, which is the perfect sniping spot, after watchin a few youtube vids about the glitches

So, basically, you're admitting to cheating in a game?

Sounds like alot of people have a knifing class now. I've got and I named it "Mr Stabby" :laugh:

I've pretty much stopped playing this game though, but if I do boot it up for lols, I just use my Mr Stabby class for quick satisfaction.

Marathon

Lightweight

Commando

FTW.

Hmm after readin bowlings twitter page "First title update will be a big one. We've been taking notes since release and working. I'll post details before it ships"

it seems a large update is gettin pushed out soon, so think we can say bye to the various map and weapon glitches, though i wonder which weapons they will nerf, im guessin shotguns. Oh and the PC version should get the javelin fix very soon once testing is done, before the consoles as doesnt need approval from steam

I for one hope they add the option of choosing a map to play, as today i played the same 3 maps over and over again, got very annoying lol

So, basically, you're admitting to cheating in a game?

tbh i wouldnt call it cheating. To get on the roof is quite difficult and i died multiple times. And most of the places are quite open (esp to harriers etc), so yeah some might be great sniper spots but after 2-3 shots sum1 should notice (esp if they watch killcam) and can take them out easily. And they've been used so many times they're one of the first things i look at. I personally dont mind some of the map glitches, just another part of the map to me, just like another hiding spot

I'm sure the 1887 shotguns will have to be nerfed in some way. They can leave the damage where its at, but they really need to decrease the range.

I think you'll find that's classified as cheating.

I'm debating with myself whether those areas you're actually meant to be able to reach though. A lot of the places that seem like areas you 'glitch' to get to, usually contain the teddy bears that the CoD games have become synonymous with. The roof on highrise, the ledge bit inside opposite building on the same map (above the desk type bit at the back, you use a ladder to get up to it too. The A capture point if you play Domination.) They're all littered with the teddy bears, perhaps IW designed the maps in such a way that you were expected to get there eventually?

I guess we'll see when the first patch comes out.

I used to think this, but the SMG's really grew on me after a few games. The Vector can really be very efficient on alot of maps, especially with a red dot sight and rapid fire. Although the maps are quite large they are fairly tight.

    • Can you give an example of when you would want to use Rufus over the other or vice versa? Just wondering which is the "best".
    • Oh no...the wallet is already screaming. So many games and so little time. Being old and responsible is awful!

    • Hands on with iFlyTek AINote 2 E-Ink tablet: insanely thin and smart by Taras Buria During Amazon Prime Day 2026, iFlyTek is offering its E-Ink tablets with big discounts. The AINOTE 2 is now available at 20% off, allowing you to save quite a lot on one of the thinnest E-Ink tablets out there. I was offered a chance to look at the device, so here are my impressions. The AINOTE 2 is a large 10.65-inch E-Ink tablet that strikes you the moment you take it out of the box. It is extremely thin. At just 4.2 mm, this tablet is at the edge of what is possible for a device with a USB Type-C port. It is also very light, which makes it comfortable and enjoyable during long reading sessions. The tablet has a gold metal chassis with the front and back made of plastic. The back also features four rubber feet that prevent it from sliding around your desk when writing. Besides a USB Type-C port and an LED indicator, there are two buttons mounted on the top edge: a power button with a built-in fingerprint scanner and a dedicated AI button. I would say the fingerprint scanner is quite mid. Given that iFlyTek positions the device as a digital notebook, it makes sense to have a biometric scanner to protect sensitive information. However, it is not the fastest fingerprint reader, and sometimes it fails to recognize my finger. I assume that is due to the tablet's insane thinness. A dedicated AI button is an interesting choice, especially in the middle of the top edge. I can see this button being useful for those who heavily rely on AI and use it frequently, but I cannot help but think its placement is impractical. Having it on one of the longer sides would make so much more sense. The AINOTE 2 is a very pretty device. Gold finish with thin chassis and nearly symmetrical front bezels create a fantastic combination, and iFlyTek cleverly hides the front chin with a section that looks like an extension of the screen, housing two touch-capacitive buttons: one for AI and one for quick notes. This section can also scroll pages when you swipe from the middle to the left or right. It is a cool idea, and very handy when you need to scroll tens of pages at once. AINOTE 2's elegant look extends from its exterior to its software. The user interface is very clean and not cluttered with an abundance of buttons. The tablet prioritizes the note-taking experience, and when you unlock it, it defaults to the list of all notes and folders. Additionally, there is a separate "Schedule" section with your calendar, tasks, memos, and other productivity features. You can connect your Outlook or Google account or use a local calendar. The tablet has quite a lot of AI features powered by OpenAI's GPT-5 and Google's Gemini 3. Besides a standard app with all your chats, you can invoke AI by pressing its dedicated button and dictating your request. It is not limited to just chats. It works with the built-in calendar, and you can tell it to create events, tasks, notes, and more. Additionally, AI features are integrated into the built-in notepad, allowing you to summarize notes, ask questions about your notes, and more. The tablet can OCR handwritten text in different languages (about 120 languages, which is very impressive), and it surprised me with very good accuracy. Voice note transcription is also available, including a "multiplayer" mode where the tablet detects each speaker. Unfortunately, the AINOTE 2 has no built-in speakers (even though it somehow makes a tapping noise when you flip pages using the Quick Bar), so the only way to listen to something is to connect a Bluetooth speaker or headphones. However, there are four front-facing mics for dictation, voice notes, AI chats, and more. Unfortunately, certain features require a Pro subscription that costs $5.99/mo or $59.99/year. Those include offline voice transcription, access to better AI models, the ability to edit notes on a PC or mobile app, and extended service coverage similar to Apple Care. It is a bummer to see yet another app, especially in a device that costs $649, but at least they give a free 90-day trial so that you can see if the benefits justify the price. As for the reader, it supports PDF, EPUB, TXT, MOBI, AZW3, DOC(X), XLS(X), PPT(X), JPEG, JPG, and PNG. The app is quite customizable, with features like text contrast/boldness/size adjustments, margins and spacing customization, and the ability to load custom fonts. Plus, you can annotate books with the stylus, add text notes, and use AI to work with them. Just keep in mind that most AI features require an active internet connection. Like with other E-Ink tablets with Android inside, you can load any other reader you want from the Google Play Store or a third-party source. Despite its hefty price tag of $629 or $519 by the time of publishing this article during Prime Day 2026, the AINOTE 2 has quite modest hardware inside. There is only 4 GB of RAM and about 42GB of storage. It is powered by the RockChip RK3576 processor with 8 cores at 2.2 GHz. Given that the tablet runs Android 14 and has Google Play, you can install Android apps, but do not expect much from this thing performance-wise. As for the battery, there is a 4,000 Li-Ion battery, which, on full charge, lasted me for about one week of active daily use of reading and note-taking. The screen has a resolution of 1920x2560 pixels, which equals 300 PPI, a perfect spot for a sharp, nice-to-read display. It supports EMR styluses that do not require charging, and I have to say that the note-taking experience on this tablet is fantastic. Stylus lag is nearly imperceivable, creating a very natural, paper-like feel. The stylus comes in the box (including two extra nibs), and it features an extra button for various actions and an eraser on top. It magnetically attaches to the tablet and stays safely secured. The stylus has a very nice coarse texture, and thanks to using Wacom tech, you can swap it for any other EMR pen if you wish. The AINOTE 2 has no front light, and because of that, the display sits very close to the screen surface, reducing the distance between the stylus tip/your finger and the display to a minimum. No front light is certainly an inconvenience in certain scenarios, but the screen makes up for that with a seriously impressive paper-like feel and writing experience. In dark conditions, you will have to find a lamp, but the good thing is that the screen has a solid anti-glare surface that diffuses light. The display has two modes: Crisp and Fast. Crisp ensures the image stays, well, crisp and sharp, while Fast speeds up refresh rate and response by toning down display resolution and making everything a bit more jagged. In my testing, I only used Fast mode when browsing the web for a much faster render time. The iFlyTek AINOTE is an impressive device, but it's not flawless. A few things disappointed me during a week of using it. Software localization has a bunch of not necessarily broken, but certainly awkward, machine-translated English. System navigation is not good, as there is no universal "Home" gesture. To go to the main page, you have to swipe up and then press the Home button from the multi-tasking window. There are many gestures for various actions, such as display cleanup, screenshot, undo/redo, but no back/forward or Home gestures. I really hate that the tablet won't let me update its software without creating an iFlyTek account first. Finally, privacy could be a concern for some, as most tablets' features require an active internet connection, an iFlyTek account, and sharing data when using AI. If you can overlook its quirks, some of which could be addressed with software updates (I received two with massive changelogs over a single week), and accept a $519 price tag (with a discount), you will be happy with the AINOTE 2. However, if you do not need that many AI features in an E-Ink reader or you want something a bit more affordable, you'd better look at cheaper competitors from BOOX or Amazon, such as the BOOX Go 10.3 Gen 2 or the Kindle Scribe, which is currently 24% off during Prime Day sales. Buy iFlyTek AINOTE 2 on Amazon - $519 | 20% off with Prime What I liked What I disliked Very impressive hardware Beautiful design Fantastic display with an EMR stylus Supports offline voice transcription Easy-to-use software Clever, useful, and well-made AI features A fingerprint scanner Very expensive Some features require a subscription Poor system navigation Mandates a user account No speakers Privacy could be a concern Note: iFlyTek provided the review unit without any editorial input or review guidance.
